Nejc Zupan on The Morning Swim Show

Dec. 17, 2012: Dartmouth College junior Nejc Zupan became a major player in the collegiate ranks in the 200 breaststroke recently, and he talks about the circumstances that led to him being one of the nation’s best swimmers on today's edition of The Morning Swim Show. Zupan, a native of Slovenia, talks from the team’s training camp in Florida about the freak skiing accident that forced him to switch from being a distance freestyler last season to a breaststroker and individual medley swimmer. That switch has paid off in surprising dividends, with Zupan posting the third-fastest 200-yard breast of the season, dropping three seconds off his lifetime best. Zupan also discusses the draw of leaving the distance free group, and whether he could represent Slovenia internationally as a breaststroker.
